About this product
SQL Server 2022 Standard brings several previously Enterprise-leaning capabilities into Standard edition: tamper-evident Ledger tables, Azure Synapse Link for near real-time analytics, and native backup/restore to any S3-compatible object storage. Query Store hints and parameter-sensitive plan optimization improve query performance without code changes, and the Azure extension lets you manage the instance through Azure Arc. Mainstream support runs until January 11, 2028; extended security updates continue until January 11, 2033.
